TIL" New England Journal Of Education
in speaking of the condition OF the Recalling
school has this to say of Csrbon's ex-county
Superintendent and Lehighton's former
citizen: "Prof. T. NJ. Ballet, of Reading,
Pa, is \ peculiarly strong man in his
methods and philosophy of sdueation, hav-
ing such a mastery of principles as to de-
yelop methods peculiarly adapted to any
circumstances in which he may fad his
schools. lie has been sustained under the
inevitable nonsense in criticism by large,
sensible. courageous Board of Education
that has not wayered under the attempt
which always comes to make poltical
capital ont Of reform that can only he
understood by !hOse who will study the
principles as well as the methods upon
which il is based. In a community Of less
intelligence, with COMMITTEES Of less hero
ism, and local press Of .ess Independence,
he might have suffered from the transient
scare" bEt thanks to his wisdom and
these fqysrins circumstances, he has given
Reading national educational fame, and
her schools one of the best systems pi in
struction in the country"

Two locomotives Collide.

Wednesday morning about 8 o'clock an
other accident occurred on the Lehigh
Valley railroad 4 short distance east of
Black Greek Junction. Passenger engine
No. 361, "FredMercur," was returning from
WeatheIly with a train of freight and
passenger cars and was run into by engine
No. 336 which was going east with a loaded
coal train. No. 36I was thrown off the
tract and considerably damaged. The train
was brought to this place by a Weatherly
engine. The track was blocked for some
time but all trains were run oyer the other
track and no delay was caused. No one
was injured by the accident. The damaged
engine is now in the shops at IIazleton for
repairs and while these are being made her
place will be taken by No. l04, the old
"William Il. Sayra."

Tho hnthrac1te Goal Trada.


The situation of the anthracite coal trade
has not changed materially during the past
week. New orders for coal are reported
scarce ahd the cancellation of untitled old
orders continues. Last week there was an
advance of ten cents per ton made by the
Reading Company in the price tor pea coal,
which is in good demand, and Lehlgh lump
was also advance - cents per ton for the
price at Mauch Chunk 50 Is per ton for the
latter size Unless there should be severely
cold weather during the month OF March
the anthracite trade is likely TO continue
dull aud inactive for the domestic sizes
AS yet there has been no concerted move
ment towards the renewal Of the "agree-
nent between gentlemen" for the regulat-
ion of the anthracite business in the season
of lSS7-S. The Old agreement will expire
on March 3lst. II is believed, however, by
some operators who are usually well posted
on anthracite affairs, that if the old ''agree
ment''is not renewed there will be at least a
tacit understanding between the anthracite
managers which will serve the purpose
With the present outlook for prosperous
year some of the managers of coal compa-
nies appear Indifferent concerning re
newal of the 1857 agreement, stating that
they believe there will be little need of any
pooling arrangement this year, as il is ex-
pected the increased demand for anthracite
will prevent any great acOup'stion Of coal
during the season, and hence prices will be
maintained, and, according to the usual
custom. advanced in the bnsy periods. The
coal producing and carrying interests are
now working in harmony.

popular John Arner, of the firm of Amer
Il Son, New Mahoning, manufacturers of
pure bone super-phosphates, one day this
week. Mr. Arner pronounces business as be-
ginning to boom. This firm manufactures
several grades of pure bone fertilizers,
among which are the celebrated Jumbo,
Hero and Victor phosphates. The chief
ingredients of the above named phosphates
are nitrogen or ammonia, phosphoric acid
and potash. Farmers who haYe used of
the popular brands of fertilizer pronounce
them the best goods in the market. There
has just been issued from the ADVOCATE
job rooms neat four page pamphlet setting
forth the special features and advantages
of the phosphates manufacared by this
firm.

BY the way, that Steam Heating Com
pany, that was TO locate here, do you know
anything about it? After all the rush and
hurry,the holding of special meetings by the
town council and school board, the cXoner-
ating of the company from the payment of
taxes for ten years, &c, it looks as if the
rattle and discharge of cannon and musketry
would only end in smoke. The "Man
About Town" was present at both meet
ings of our town officials and became much
interested as we heard the prospective
works described time and time again, as
means of urging our borough fathers to do
their duty. Probably there was just little
something wrong in the wording of the
resolution eXonerating the company from
the payment OF taxes; We give it the benifit
of doubt anyhow, and feel safe in clubbing
it grand iasco with a ryrGtechnical dis
play Of gas. Now let US have something
new.

OUR MAN ABOUT TOWN.
The Things our People Find Time to Talk
About from Day to Day.


One evening this week l accidentally
ran against crowd Of Lehighton tax pay
ers, who were discussing the interests of
the town. During the conversation l
learned that several weeks ago parties were
here looking for site on which to erect
silk mill and also 10 see how much of the
more necessary article could be raised to-
wards its erection. As usual every mortal
soul was as poor as a church mouse, in
fact, our wealthy citizens, and we have
them too, Though they guard their treasures
with a miserlY eye and grasping hand,
were Dinnis, Why is this thus? you ask;
for the simple reason that their earnings
represent years Of toll and an investment
in which they cannot see their money
doubled and thribbed before their eyes,
has no charms for them. "True tits, tits
pity; pity It's it's true" One of the gentle
man blamed the Lebigh Valley Company
for the stand-still condition of our town to-
day. Considering the accusation in a
logical sense it is in all probability not mis-
placed, for had we works at which our
citizens could find employment other then
at the rackerton shops it is but natural
that there would he, IN q short time de-
mand for labor, the consequence of which
would be a raise in wages and an increase
in the running expenses of the Lehigh
Valley Company's works, Looking at it
squarely from this point of view it does
not seem the least improbable, but rather
the longer you study the fbusness" the
more likely it becomes that after all the
blame does rest on the company, and that
for their own gain they have put their
heel on the town and we haYe not enough
ambition to kick against it,

CHANGE IN POSTAGE STAMPS
The Postoffice Department about the
10th of September next will make GER
tain changes in the color and design of
its adhesive stamps and impressed
stamps upon envelopes. The two
cent adhesive stamp, now issued in
green, will be changed to vermillion.
The design of adhesive stamps will
remain unchanged. In stamped en-
velodes the two-cent envelope will be
changed from red to green; the four
cent envelope will be changed from
green to carmine; the five-cent, from
brown to dark blue; the thirty-cent,
from black to brown; and the ninty-
cent, from carmine to purple. The
design of the stamped envelopes will
also be the same as now except with
the one, two, four and five-cent de-
nominations. The heads on these
stamps have been re-engraved and
have a slightly different appearance
from the old stamps, and the orna-
mentation around them is also slight.
~ changed. One purpose in making
the changes in color is to have that
of stamped envelopes correspond, as
nearly as possible, with that of the
adhesive stamp.

FARM HINTS FOR SEPTEMBER.

The general testimony is in favor
Of early sowing Of wheat. 1t is Of
the first Importance to prepare a
good seed-bed, using the harrow
and roller until the soil is thorough
ly pulverized. No good farmer will
SOW wheat broadcast. If he cannot
afford to own drill he can hire one,
and the saving in seed will pay for
the rent of the machine. One great
benefit from the use Of the drill is
that it puts the seed at a uniform
depth below the surface. Do not
change the kind of wheat without
good reason. If a variety is highly
praised, and appears to be better
than that now grown, try small
quantity, giving it the same soil and
care as the general crop, sowing
enough to give seed for next year,
should it turn out well. There is,
in most localities, a frost about the
latter of this month. This catches
the buckwheat when the flower clus-
tiers are still in bloom, while at the
lower part of the cluster there is rip.
ened grain. If the crop is cut when
frost appears to be imminent, and
placed in good.sized gavels, the
partly matured grain will go on and
ripen. Fl
The root crops will grow rapidly
these cool nights, and may still be
thinned to advantage, of course
keeping them clear of late weeds.
In localities where there are early
frosts, cutting III, corn will be the
most important work of the month.
Every farmer has his own view If
the number of hill that should go to
the stock. A short.handled hoe,
with the blade ground sharp and
kept so by the use Of file willie at
work, will be found to be the most
convenient implement. Cut low, to
leave as little stubble as possible.
Fodder corn should be cut upon
the first intimatiOn of frost. If cut
and laid in the rows, it will not be
injured by the frost as much as if
neutrality-suspicious. Agrieulturist
for September.
